2016 release from the Portland-based heavy metal band. You often catch that look. A band is on stage and all the members glance at each other with that "I'm feeling it" expression. The band is in the pocket, they have gelled and have become one cohesive unit and reach a sort of runners high for musician. This is exactly what happened to Spellcaster going into their third full length album, Night Hides The World. Though it wasn't on the stage where this happened, it was in the rehearsal room. A team is always stronger than the individual. When synergy is reached, the group becomes unstoppable and output is at it's highest, greatest and most effective. Spellcaster achieved this, allowing each individual to hit his peak performance which benefitted the whole. Franco explains, "during our first two albums we were pretty selective - others might say nitpicky, about what riffs/lyrics we would use and how we wanted to sound, with this album I think we all collectively realized we are competent musicians and learned to trust each other more" That trust gave way to eight powerful, classic metal tunes. Biting sharp riffs from the twin guitar attack of shredders Cory Boyd and Bryce VanHoosen blend seamlessly with the rock-solid backbone of Franco and drummer Colin Vranizan. Tyler Loner adds soaring vocals on top of massive choruses to create the ultimate Spellcaster album.
